I know how frustrating problems can be as I soft bricked mine two days ago attempting to do a Nand restore back my last GB rom from CWM and then spent four hours trying to get my PC to see my phone so I could use ODIN. Here's my method that worked flawlessly for me.

1. Turn phone off and use your jig to put into download mode (get one if you don't have one. Best $10 I ever spent at MobilTechVideos)

2. Open Odin and install 897uckf1 bootloaders package found here http://www.team-continuum.net/home/index.php?PHPSESSID=1fc8610a008bd60326adf4b7837763e0&topic=17.0

3. When done, remove battery and put back in and then put back into download mode

4. Flash TalonDev Kernel (also provided in above link )

5. when done reboot phone. You will now be stock/rooted GB with CWM. Turn phone off

6. Reboot into recovery (vol up then power button, release power soon as you see the GT-I9000 screen and keep vol up held down till you see orange CWM

7. Wipe Cach/Dalvik/Data factory reset. Flash ICS RC2.11

8. reboot. You should be stuck in the boot mode now (rainbow boot animation). pull battery and reboot into recovery.

9. Flash ICS RC2.11 again no wiping

10. Select advance then "reboot recovery" If it does reboot CWM pull battery and use button combo

11. Flash Nush 3180

12. Reboot. You should now have working RC2.11

13. Reboot into recovery

14. Flash RC3. No wipe. Kernel will be overwritten with Platypus Kernel

15. Reboot and you should be good to go with RC3

I'm sure there are plenty of other methods but this is what always works for when all else fails.

switching from MIUI

Great rom nice work really appreciate your hard work and i think this is the first and most stable r0m of ICS for captivate :D , as I m switching from MIUI can i use MIUI's back manager in this rom ? but all of my backup is on that software any suggestion?

This is pretty simple... If you are not using the stock configuration either post which kernel are you using or go post to the kernel thread.

I didn't have any issues coming from RC1 stock configuration.
[Captivate Android Development] Adaptive13:
The install completed using Nushor's 3189 kernel. Should I reinstall this kernel or use the one in the ROM?

Also, I noticed during the install that it said it was installing Onecosmic ICS I9000 AOSP. This is a captivate (with I9000 GB bootloaders from an older ROM). Is this OK or do I need to put captivate bootloaders on it to get the ROM to install "correctly"? All of the keys seem to be working so this might not be an issue, just throwing it out there.

They should post set up, but not everyone comes from same rom. This should be considered as a bug either rom or kernel, devs should know and let them figure out ;)

On a sidenote, think you could post a link to just the platypus kernel? I automatically flashed nushor's out of habit, but would like to run it on platypus to see how it runs.... I guess I could always pull it from the zip, but maybe post it for others... :D

Couldn't get a phone signal (3g)

Really wanted to like this ICS Rom but got the dreaded "can't get 3g". I was never able to get a signal (not once). Thought I followed the instructions to the "T", but guess I didn't. Went back to stock 2.3 on my Captivate since I read the "we won't help you if your 3g doesn't work. You did something wrong". ICS looked nice while it lasted...

I'm on AT&T in the states. Maybe I'll try again somewhere down the line. That killed my whole night trying to get it to work and then reverting to 2.3 again.

For all you guys with auto brightness issues, does it feel like the screen is always way too dim? Because that's what it looked like for me, and then I walked outside into bright sunlight (Southern California desert...) and the screen lights up to 100%. I'm thinking that auto brightness isn't broken, it's just extremely aggressive at lowering screen brightness and deserves to be tuned a little less aggressively for ease of use.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
the sensor setting got tweaked. In my case it isn't adjusting almost at all. Before I put my phone under a bulb and sensor test would read 5000, now highest I've seen it is like 160 ish.

[Captivate Android Development] Nerdfest:
Damn, I wish I'd checked my APN settings. I gave up on it after trying a bunch of different modems and never thought to check. Too bad too, as pretty much everything worked very well under 2.11 and 3.1 except 3G. Maybe I'll try again this weekend. I meant to ask as well, it it normal that the ROM burn process shows I9000? I notice the default modem does as well as the JVT modem, but I've noticed a few people running these on 897s before.
[Captivate Android Development] martyh1:
I think its different here in the U.S. I looked at the APN settings and there was nothing there (i.e. blank). I think something a little lower level than that was causing the issue. In the "mobile network"->"network operators" screen, it would always give "error while searching for networks".

I did all 3 of those but none of it helped. Oh well, the fresh install of 2.3 actually seemed to make my Captivate run a little smoother and I'm not reinstalling all my previous apps, only the ones I really need/want.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
This rom is a AOSP ported from I9000. So id's will be I9000. That being said since the kernel doesn't support audience chip all of the i897 modems will have static, some alot others very little.

[Captivate Android Development] daskanda:
if its blank then you need to add apn settings... you can find default apn settings for at&t somewhere on xda..... i had to manually add it once back on a GB and never had to touch them again just had to switch it to the settings i put in when i flash ICS

Just tested auto brightness and it works fine on 3.1 for me.

Full day with 3.1, flashed over 2.11 w/ nushor 3189. Cleared cache/dalvik, have had zero issues so far. All sensors work as expected, a couple of force closes, in TiBU, not sure what happened there. Currently running the JL2 modem without issue as well.

Was motivated to flash 3.1 as I was getting sleep death on 2.11, had to remove the battery to recover. Anywho...looking forward to some 3.1 goodness.

This is one slick ROM. Thanks for the hard work!!!!

for 3g issue, most likely your /efs is messed up during flash. Restore your /efs and reboot and it will be fixed.

Can anyone provide insight to the following:

I use ES File Explorer and previously on GB roms and back to before that all my files on my removable sd card always showed in the folder "external sd"

They now show in in mnt/emmc. Is this supposed to be ? I use various differnt camera apps that you can chose to save to internal or external but now my sd is not classified as "external sd" so when I open up the gallery after taking a picture they don't show.

I had the same issue with the 2.11, i will come to know by morning if 3.1 fixes it for me.

but i am seeing that battery life as of now is not good as compared with 2.11, may be it will require 2-3 discharges before i should whine about it :D...hopefully that will fix it. let me know how is your battery life as of now with 3.1 with new kernel :)

My first impressions of the platypus kenel is that it may be eating more battery life then nushor. I had 2.11/nushor for 3days and didn't have any battery draining issues, today i flashed, 3.1 and seeing battery drain issues. I will wait for 2-3 days to give it complete drain/charge cycles. hopefully that will settle the issue.

So...not sure what the heck is going on with my phone. Was on Illuminence, had previously tried 2.11 with no issues. Flashed RC3, and at first, it was giving me the status 7 error. So I flashed to 2.11 first, then to RC3, and everything was peachy. Installed some apps, left it to sit overnight. Alarm worked even. Then it came time to swap batteries.

Turned the phone off, swapped batteries, and turned it on. After it showed the "Google" logo, it would just go to a blank screen. Let it sit like that for over 30 minutes...wouldn't boot. I was able to get into recovery mode with the button combo and tried flashing Illuminence, well, that failed. It just kept showing me the Platypus splash screen and would just sit at that screen, no matter how many times I flashed Illumenence. So I tried RC2.11, and to my surprise, it worked. (would have used Odin, but I didn't have a computer at my disposal).

So, now, the same thing has happened with 2.11, only now, I can't even access CWM. I simply tried powering down the phone and rebooting it, and it just hangs on the "Google" logo. If I try to access recovery, it brings me to a blank screen and the buttons on the bottom light up. I can get into Download mode so I'm going to try and flash something, but what could have been causing this? I don't want to try this again if I can't reboot my phone..
